"Teachers are in a position of tremendous responsibility in in fluencing the child's life," Pro fessor Messenger said, but added the parent's responsibility was far greater. The speaker said one of the common fallings of parents was the inclination to postpone vari ous educational phases in the child's life, and said this was unfortunate since "the child can't wait." "We build into his life today the kind of past he will have tomorrow," the speak er declared. Professor Messenger said a child should not be taught to diate problem. The speaker de clared that a feeling of insecur ity in the home and in groups is the greatest underlying cause of most behaviour problems, both with children and with adults.
